Microsoft schließt mit Verzögerung gefährliche Secure-Boot-Lücke
Microsoft hat eine kritische Sicherheitslücke in Windows geschlossen, die Angreifern seit mindestens sieben Monaten das Umgehen des Secure-Boot-Standards ermöglichte.Christian Kahle (WinFuture.de)
This happened because the “left-liberal camp” did not agree on which candidate to support, if I am reading the news correctly.
I saw outgoing EDPS Wojciech Wiewiórowski at more than one @fnf meeting, and I doubt that his successor will turn up at this grassroots #privacy barcamp.

Too critical? MEPs vote out Data Protection Commissioner Wiewiórowski
EU Parliament's Committee on Home Affairs has chosen Bruno Gencarelli as its preferred candidate for the role of EU Data Protection Supervisor.Stefan Krempl (heise online)

btw.: Bei Datenschutzbeauftragten die abgestraft werden weil sie ihre Arbeit zu gut machen muss ich auch an den verehrten Hr. Kelber @ulrichkelber denken...

Licht aus: Excel für Windows erhält endlich echten Dark Mode
Nach etlichen Jahren erhält das Tabellen-Programm von Microsoft endlich einen Dark Mode, der den Namen auch verdient. Bilder zeigen das Design, das momentan noch getestet wird. Es soll aber schon bald allen Nutzern zur Verfügung stehen.Felix Krauth (WinFuture.de)

Microsoft would really like you to replace your old Windows 10 PCs this year
The carrot of “new features” and the stick of “no more updates for your old PC.”…Andrew Cunningham (Ars Technica)
Microsoft is warning of an issue when using a media support to install Windows 11 [version 24H2], that causes the operating system to not accept further security updates.

Microsoft claims its new Windows 11 Xbox popups aren’t ads, merely “options you can purchase”
With Windows 11 slowly receiving more and more ads across its system, people are getting a little tired of seeing new ones pop up. Over the past few days, some users have spotted ad pop-ups advertising the new Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and the paid Microsoft Defender security app. Fortunately, Microsoft has cleared up this little mess by stating that these aren’t ads at all but instead “giving the people the option to purchase” a product. Phew. Well, that clears that up, doesn’t it?
This is the very best of PR technobabble. You just know if a company dresses something up like this, that they actually do feel a bit guilty about it. But it’s like a lie is to a mistruth. A lot of the problems we have today are because of propaganda being applied by corporates and governments.
So there you go, all those pop-ups on websites, and the things that YouTube interrupts your videos with, are actually just options you can purchase. I feel the Oxford Dictionary word of 2025 may be something along these lines. We just need to invent the word now.

"#ArtificialIntelligence has driven shares of tech companies like #Microsoft (#MSFT), #Amazon (#AMZN), #Nvidia (N#VDA), and #Google (GOOG, GOOGL) to new highs this year. But the technology, which companies promise will revolutionize our lives, is driving something else just as high as stock prices: #EnergyConsumption [and #WaterConsumption].
"#AI #DataCenters use huge amounts of power and could increase energy demand by as much as 20% over the next decade, according to a Department of Energy spokesperson. Pair that with the continued growth of the broader cloud computing market, and you’ve got an energy squeeze.
"But Big Tech has also set ambitious sustainability goals focused on the use of low-carbon and zero-carbon sources to reduce its impact on climate change. While renewable energy like solar and wind are certainly part of that equation, tech companies need uninterruptible power sources. And for that, they’re leaning into #NuclearPower.
"Tech giants aren’t just planning to hook into existing plants, either. They’re working with energy companies to bring mothballed facilities like Pennsylvania’s Three Mile Island back online and looking to build small modular reactors (#SMRs) that take up less space than traditional plants and, the hope is, are cheaper to construct.
"But there are still plenty of questions as to whether these investments in nuclear energy will ever pan out, not to mention how long it will take to build any new reactors."

When I entered a credit card number and a random username / password into a Windows Notepad window, Recall captured it, despite the fact that I had text such as “Capital One Visa” right next to the numbers. Similarly, when I filled out a loan application PDF in Microsoft Edge, entering a social security number, name and DOB, Recall captured that. Note that all info in these screenshots is made up, but I also tested with an actual credit card number of mine and the results were the same."

Microsoft resolved 72 vulnerabilities in a variety of its products, including a zero-day [CVE-2024-49138 (CVSS score: 7.8)] that’s been exploited by attackers in the wild to execute code with higher privileges, and 16 critical vulnerabilities (all of which are remote code execution flaws).

![It's worth noting that CVE-2024-49138 is the fifth actively exploited CLFS privilege escalation flaw since 2022 after CVE-2022-24521, CVE-2022-37969, CVE-2023-23376 and CVE-2023-28252 (CVSS scores: 7.8). It's also the ninth vulnerability in the same component to be patched this year.
The fact that CLFS has become an attractive attack pathway for malicious actors has not gone unnoticed by Microsoft, which said it's working to add a new verification step when parsing such log files.
The number of fixed bugs in each vulnerability category is listed below:
• 27 Elevation of Privilege Vulnerabilities
• 30 Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities
• 7 Information Disclosure Vulnerabilities
• 5 Denial of Service Vulnerabilities
• 1 Spoofing Vulnerabilities

If you are a writer who uses MS Word to write any proprietary content (blog posts, novels, or any work you intend to protect with copyright and/or sell), you’re going to want to turn this feature off immediately.
I won’t beat around the bush. Microsoft Office doesn’t make it easy to opt out of this new AI privacy agreement, as the feature is hidden through a series of popup menus in your settings:
On a Windows computer, follow these steps to turn off “Connected Experiences”: File > Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Privacy Options > Privacy Settings > Optional Connected Experiences > Uncheck box: “Turn on optional connected experiences”"
